ターボコンパウンド
Wikipedia definition
1. Turbo-compound engine​A turbo-compound engine is a reciprocating engine that employs a blowdown turbine to recover energy from the exhaust gases. The turbine is usually mechanically connected to the crankshaft, as on the DC-7B and the Super Constellation, but electric and hydraulic systems have been investigated as well. The turbine increases the output of the engine without increasing its fuel consumption, thus reducing the specific fuel consumption.
